| Obverse description | The heraldic bear of Bern depicted in profile walking to the left, rendered in a bold, naive style characteristic of small hammered coinage. The figure occupies the central field, with the date 1558 inscribed in large numerals above the animal. The bear's claws and facial features are rendered with simple but deliberate detail, consistent with the hand-engraving traditions of 16th-century Swiss municipal coinage. |
